For Thursday, March 26, 2015 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Today starts a bit at loose ends but then settles down nicely once you get home. In fact, a chance to cocoon at home will please you the most. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) You might be focused on financial matters and cash flow today; however, this BEETLE BAILEY is not a good day for important purchases. Postpone them until this evening or tomor- row. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Today the Moon is in your sign, but later it moves into Cancer. It’s a lovely day to relax and enjoy the company of others. This evening, you might do homework or pay bills. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) This afternoon, the Moon moves into your sign, which makes you more emo- HAGAR THE HORRIBLE tional than usual. (And you already are an emotional, sensitive person.) Fortunately, this brings you a bit of good luck as well. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Enjoy casual conversations with female acquaintances today, because by evening, you will seek out privacy and solitude for yourself. Today has some ex- tremes for you. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) People notice you today, because they’re talking about you for some reason. ARCHIE Later in the day, you will get feedback from friends, perhaps in a group. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Do something different today so that you can get a change of scenery. Go CROSSWORD By Eugene Sheffer someplace you’ve never been before. Talk to people from different backgrounds. You want to get more out of life. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Today is a great day to explore new ideas with others, but gently so. Later in the day, red-tape details and finances will cap- BABY BLUES ture your attention. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Late today the Moon will move op- posite your sign, which means you have to go more than halfway when dealing with others. This simply requires courtesy and accommodation. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Conversations with others will be frank and honest today. However, agree to nothing important. Just get information. AQUARIUS THE PHANTOM (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Your efficiency and productivity will be challenged today, and by late in the day, you will want to play. And why not? You can work tomorrow. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) This is a creative day for you. If you work in the arts, the entertainment world or the hospitality industry, write down your great ideas. See how they sound tomorrow. YOU BORN TODAY You like things to be simple, and you like to work at your HI & LOIS own pace. You are self-sufficient and re- sponsible. Nevertheless, you also have a childlike spontaneity in life that is open and honest. This is the beginning of a fresh, exciting, new nine-year cycle for you. This means you are at the beginning of things. Therefore, open any door! Birthdate of: Keira Knightley, ac- tress; Larry Page, Internet entrepreneur; Jennifer Grey, actress.
